Offloading images, js, css, cgi, and other scripts to Google (or jquery.com or anywhere else frankly) is disallowed because you're introducing an unnecessary dependency on another site. If the file you're trying to use isn't a part of WordPress Core, then you should include it -locally- in your plugin, not remotely. If the file IS included in WordPress core, please call that instead.

The one exception to this rule is if your plugin is performing a service. We will permit this on a case by case basis, however since this can be confusing, we have some examples of what are not permitted:* Offloading jquery CSS files to Google - You should include the CSS in your plugin.
* Inserting an iframe with a help doc - A link, or including the docs in your plugin is preferred.
* Calling images from your own domain - They should be included in your plugin.

Please remove this dependency from your plugin and, if possible, include all files within the plugin (that is not called remotely). If instead you feel you ARE providing a service, please re-write your readme.txt in a manner that explains the service, the servers being called, and if any account is needed to connect.

In order to provide the best compatibility and experience for our users, we ask that you not package your own (especially not an older version) and instead use wp_enqueue_script() to pull in WordPress’s version.

Keep in mind: Offloading the default jquery and other scripts to Google is similarly disallowed for the same reasons, but also because you're introducing an unnecessary dependency on another site. If your code doesn't work with the built-in jQuery, it's most likely a noconflict issue. If you can't guess, we -really- want you to use our jquery, and if you can't, we need to know why so we can fix things for everyone.
